Vers: 66

قَالَ لَنۡ أُرۡسِلَهُۥ مَعَكُمۡ حَتَّىٰ تُؤۡتُونِ مَوۡثِقٗا مِّنَ ٱللَّهِ لَتَأۡتُنَّنِي بِهِۦٓ إِلَّآ أَن يُحَاطَ بِكُمۡۖ فَلَمَّآ ءَاتَوۡهُ مَوۡثِقَهُمۡ قَالَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَىٰ مَا نَقُولُ وَكِيلٞ

(66) He said: “I shall not send him with you unless you give me a pledge by Allah that you shall bring him ˹back˺ to me unless you are surrounded!^[2777]” When they gave him their pledge, he said: “Allah is Keeper over what we say!”

[2777] That is, in the face of overpowering circumstances that would prevent them from fulfilling their contract with him; a force majeure (cf. al-Ṭabarī, Ibn Kathīr).
